Connecting The Dots
Once we have found what an employer wants we then find the right employees with skill sets that match the job requirements. With employees we have an in depth application which helps list abilities and skill sets so the right person is picked and valuable training time is not wasted on the wrong candidate.
Training and Employment
We interview the selected candidates with the employer and take notes of which type of employee they want. Not every employee will be suited and may find the job is not right for them. This allows us to fine tune the selection process for future candidates. Training can be given and employers can be part of this process.
